Ms Giuffre , who was not one of The Four women who testified in the case but was referenced on many occasions In Court , said she would " remember This Day always".

Maxwell's brother Ian told The Bbc that she would appeal against The Verdict " on legal grounds - both in terms of the pre-trial process and The Trial process as well" but did not give further details.

He described The Victims ' Testimony as " heart-rending" but said he still believed his sister's innocence.

Another of Epstein and Maxwell's accusers, Sarah Ransome, criticised Mr Maxwell's remarks.

" This Sex Trafficking pyramid wouldn't exist without Ghislaine, " She Said .

" I really think Ghislaine's brother should sit in a room full of Ghislaine's survivors because Then he might have a different opinion of what his sister actually has done. She has destroyed hundreds of lives. "
